The Madlanga Commission of Inquiry has garnered support from small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that cautiously view it as a potentially pivotal moment in the fight against corruption and organised crime in the country.

The businesses believe the commission's efforts could lead to significant improvements in transparency and accountability.

This is part of new data for the second quarter of 2025 produced by Business Partners Limited SME Confidence Index, which reveals that more than half (56.82%) of SMEs believe it could be a turning point in reducing corruption and organised crime.
